The Fate of the Gunman

"Bang~bang~"

A closed window knocked twice before the window was opened.

In fact, Lancer had previously thought about whether he would encounter the legendary "Welfare CG" if he suddenly broke in, but he considered again and again that he gave up this seemingly good option, after all, if he really saw it accidentally Fortunately, if he had this kind of thinking and did this kind of thing, wouldn't he be sorry for Atalante's trust in him?

Lancer believed that his balance of morality was still sufficient, so he blocked this possibility with a proposal from the beginning.

When he turned over and entered the room, he saw Atalante leaning against the window with a troubled face.

After thinking for two seconds, Lancer guessed the answer.

"Acadia's people are coming?"

Facing Lancer's question, Atalante just nodded but didn't say anything. Lancer also patted her on the head.

"It's okay, but I said it before, I will help you secretly."

Perhaps it was because he was used to it, or he knew that Lancer's purpose of doing this was only to comfort himself, so Atalante was rarely angry, but silently nodded.

After completing the hunt, Jason and Hercules left together. According to them, they planned to continue to search for the Argo. At the same time, they gathered the crew. The two parties agreed that they would send someone to inform Lancer before he was ready to go to sea. , If you have time, then go with them.

As for Lancer, he also chose to'leave' after he handed over the territory to the village where Atalante was adopted.

The external statement is very simple. Lancer gave the land to the other party in order to repay Atalante’s life-saving grace. This matter also obtained the king’s approval, and in order to remove his influence from the rest of the matter. Se also simply chose to separate from Atalante. As for the meeting between the two, they exchanged information through the portal opened by'Etiyesh'.

Of course, if Atalante is in danger, Lancer can still use the spell to know that even if the two separate each other, the safety of each other can be guaranteed to a certain extent, not to mention that Atalante is not a flower in a greenhouse. In the forest, she was a real huntress who started hunting again after she grew up.

As expected by Atalante, a message came to the village just a few days later.

The king of Arcadia publicly invited Atalante.

Atalanta, who heard the news in the archery range, did not change the slightest expression, which was surprisingly calm, because she was already mentally prepared.

Atalante did not hesitate when the team that had invited him arrived.

"Let's go."

However, before boarding the carriage, she unconsciously glanced at the forest in the distance of the village, and then boarded the carriage.

The reason she didn't hesitate at all was because she knew that someone was silently protecting her, and she was no longer alone at this time.

Chapter Twenty-Three: Lancer Who Cannot Talk

When the envoy who was envoy of Caludon had drawn the portrait of Atalante and the village chief’s'testimony', he suddenly felt a little bit in his heart, because at this time, his King's expression changed. It was very subtle, like a memory, and as if she was sighing something, and the queen who was called by the king was almost crying after seeing the portrait.

Since ancient times, there have been few courtiers who have interfered with the royal family. The messenger at this time can be sure that the woman named'Atalante' must be related to the royal family, otherwise the king and queen will not behave so abnormally, but at this time He can no longer take care of the reward he once expected, he only hopes that he will not be silenced.

But just as he was in the mood for speculation, the king finally spoke.

"Give you another task, to invite this girl named Atalante to Arcadia. As for the reason... the king and the queen want to talk to her."

"Yes! Your Majesty! I'm going now!"

After paying a salute, he left the study as if fleeing for his life, but in fact he was really running for his life. He even made up his mind to return to his hometown when he completed this task, even if he is less than 40 years old now.

At this time, no one except the king and queen knew that this seemingly ordinary invitation might affect the future of the entire kingdom.

Only a few days later, the messenger who led the messenger group to return was more serious than the last time, because when he returned last time, he thought that the woman named Atalante should be related to the queen. As for the king, it should be unaware, but After he experienced the previous event, he was certain of one thing, that is, the matter of the girl, whether it is the queen or the king, knows that it seems that it is not as simple as the queen wearing a hat to the king, but a greater secret. .

At this time, he can say that he has no unnecessary thoughts, and his brain is full of strong desire to survive.

It’s just that the subsequent development of things was somewhat beyond his expectation. The king and queen did not hide the arrival of Atalante at all. It could even be said to be a big publicity, and when Atalante walked down in leather armor and carrying a hunting bow. When the carriage was in the carriage, the whole scene was quiet, because the lady named Atalante who everyone noticed looked very much like the queen.

All kinds of strange speculations were also spread madly throughout the city, but Atalante on the other side didn't care about these things. She just got out of the carriage and walked into the palace with a cold face.

She used to look curious when she came here. Because she always lived in the forest, she was both wary and curious about the strange and prosperous cities, but she was more sighing about the places she had already been to. , But when she stepped into the palace gate, she was completely stunned there.

The king and queen protected by the guards were standing there with a serious face.

This is almost the same as the scene in her memory. She also simulated the scenes of countless times when she met the two again in her mind. It can be said that she has already remembered what she is going to say and do in her mind. I simulated it countless times, but when she really met the two, she found that her mind was blank, and when she regained consciousness, she was embraced by others.

Listening to the sound of sobbing in the ear and feeling the strength of the other party almost rubbing herself into her body, she found that she was also choked and speechless. The only thing she could do was to backhand the other party into her arms.

——————

Atalante, the female hunter who hunted the Caludon wild boar, was actually the daughter of King Acadia who lost 17 years. The turmoil caused in Acadia is self-evident.

Not only because Atalante participated in the hunting of Caludon wild boars, but also because no one thought that a woman with the right to succeed to the throne would suddenly appear.

The king and the queen have never had any offspring since they were married for 18 years. The country is full of rumors about this matter. This is not only due to the curiosity of the people, but also some caring people behind it. But it is undeniable that after so many years of Arkadi Ya almost acquiesced in the fact that the king would not have offspring, but no one had thought that the other party's daughter would appear at this time after so many years.

For a while, the entire Arcadia Kingdom was completely disrupted in both the light and the dark, but Atalante, the center of this chaos, leaned against the wall and looked at the sky and sighed.

"What's wrong? Could it be that something unexpected happened today?"

Lancer, who didn't know when he appeared next to Atalanta, asked curiously, but Atalanta shook his head.

"No, it can be said that everything is exactly the same as I expected, but I don't know why..."

Looking at Atalanta's complicated expression, Lancer didn't know how to comfort him, because he knew why he was like this.

According to Lancer’s understanding of Atalante, the other party did not actually hate his mother. It can even be said that the reason why she was very excited before was also sent to her. The reason why she was so entangled was her father , The current King of Arcadia—————— Iasos.

The reason why the other party abandoned her back then was because she was a girl. It can be said that if Artemis hadn't taken care of her, the female bear had adopted Atalante, and she had died in the forest.

If it wasn't for her mother, Atalante could ignore her without hesitation, but the problem was her mother.

She had her husband on one side and her daughter on the other. She could say that she didn't know what choice she should make. This is why the other party actually agreed to agree when Atalante was asked to'marry'.

It's just that Atalante never thought that he would fail because of the golden apple.

Although she had the opportunity to choose again, she was even more confused when faced with this opportunity.

It is precisely because he knew all this that Lancer could not comfort Atalanta. After all, an upright official could hardly break the housework. He was not even qualified to interrupt in this matter, because he was not qualified to let Atalanta forgive him for abandoning himself. His father is also not qualified to let the other party hurt the mother who loves him deeply.

The only thing Lancer can do at this time is to silently accompany her by the other side.

He seemed to know that his low air pressure was not suitable, Atalante took a deep breath and made his voice sound a lot normal.

"Lancer, have you found the clue now?"

Since Atalante didn't want to talk more about this matter, Lancer Lancer wouldn't be entangled in this, and simply followed the other party and changed the subject.

"Fortunately, although the information is relatively small, because of the wild boar, the king has given us a lot of help. The island where the legendary'Medusa' is located should be able to be found."

There is no doubt that the search for the legendary "monster" is for Lancer's "side mission".

Speaking of the most famous mission in ancient Greek mythology is naturally'Medusa', and Lancer also focused on this matter.
